Slothrop may have gone to "where the woodbine twineth." Or, he may have gone
to seek what lies beyond The Word. But:

"....blood and flesh after all are words. As such they do of course - or so
we assume - refer to real distinctions (differences) in the world. Only,
those distinctions were selected by human minds among billions of other
(abstractly) possible distinctions. To the extent human 'reality' is
understandable it necessarily is information, for as Bateson told us 'there
are in the mind no coconuts ...'."

Or maybe he's gone "where the water tastes like wine..." Enjoy.
